          I mean it depends. For gaming they trade blows, but for productivity intel is left behind. With AMD you can get 16 actual cores vs Intel's 8 real cores + 16 * (1/4) cores. But you get all of this with a generally higher power usage so bear that in mind. That said for a normal user modern i5s are an amazing value proposition and I would recommend them over AMD any day.

          >more reliable.
          You are right in the sense that any x3D CPU that had over 8 cores (7900x3D and 7950x3D) had some issues due to cheaping out and only putting V-Cache on one CCD instead of both causing latency spikes when being used by the other CCD. No issues like that were present on any other model. This is also kinda similar to what happened when Intel started with their little big architecture, windows had to get support in order for it to work. But other than this weird edge-case I haven't heard issues from any of my friends who had Ryzen over all of these years and neither did I frankly.

        Then you ask me: why does Intel sell more to the corporate/OEM market than AMD? This outcome reflects the corporate market; very few companies purchase CPUs from AMD. The company I work for has approximately 80 thousand machines, of which almost 95% are Intel, and the remaining 5% are Apple. Other companies follow the same path. When studies are conducted for IT asset renewal, reliability and stability carry significant weight, and Intel has excelled in this over the years. I'm not an Intel fanboy; I use AMD products, and I know they are currently better than in the past, but AMD lacks positive marketing. If they want to grow, they have to invest heavily to improve this poor image from the past that still influences the present.

        Furthermore, AMD faces issues with EVERY SINGLE RELEASE! It's ridiculous!

        Furthermore, AMD faces issues with EVERY SINGLE RELEASE! It's ridiculous!

        When you buy in bulk in the corporate market, Intel offers a larger discount, better payment terms, and infinitely better support. Claiming warranty with Intel is super-fast and without (as much) bureaucracy. On the other hand, AMD may require DNA tests and takes time to approve warranties (in half of the cases, you need to insist and request a new technical evaluation).

        If you detect any bugs, Intel has an excellent support channel and within less than a month, they release an update with the fix. AMD, on the other hand, requires you to send an email to a specific department that leaves you hanging for months or even years without a response ("Your request is being analyzed by the responsible technical department and will be answered once a solution is found.").

        So, you end up praying for some generic AGESA or chipset update to help with the solution. Often, it's better to approach Microsoft for a fix through the operating system, but that usually results in performance loss.

        With AMD, the pricing and payment terms are non-negotiable, they always direct you to a partner to push for the complete system (even if you only want batches of GPUs or CPUs, for example), and support is bureaucratic, slow, and a nightmare from start to finish.

        AMD is still in diapers in terms of added value and doesn't want to evolve, which is why it will never lead the industry.

          That was only true back in early 2010s and before. The scene is completely different now. Intel is actually the underdog now. Spectre and Meltdown debacles have utterly destroyed Intel's prestige in the professional space. They no longer have their lead in fab technology to fallback on either.

            If you buy a 2 CCD part I assume you have a good reason and it's not for latency sensitive workloads. i.e. not a gaymer moron who thinks bigger number = better.
            >SMT is fundamentally insecure
            This is true but intel has never cared about security, lest we forget how much spectre and meltdown mitigations impacted them vs amd. Intel are dumping SMT because their implementation is full of enough holes that it's a reputational issue for them in enterprise. Their rentable units project is an overly complex smokescreen for that and a bit of sunk cost fallacy over making big.little designs with different microarchitectures "work". If intel (or amd) really cared about this, they'd increase the performance core count, but both sides are determined not to offer more than 8 in a single CCD equivalent.
            >amd is slowly being crippled too in terms of security issues
            Not to the same degree. Intel just had to ship new mitigations.
            https://www.phoronix.com/news/Intel-March-2024-Security
            Frankly though you're an idiot if you enable any mitigations on a desktop computer.
            >pretty sure they're going in the opposite direction, they're building fabs like crazy
            Intel is spending vast amounts of money investing in new fabs and new nodes, but are doing it under the assumption that they can eventually get the money back by getting fab contracts from third parties. I don't see why anyone should use intel as their primary supplier when intel can't do enough volume for their internal consumption on any of their new nodes. At that point, why not just go direct to TSMC? Intel fabs lack confidence from design houses and investors across the board.

      In this case, intel was Le Creme De La Creme at everything compared to amd. Even with this situation, the edge lord contrarian moron goes and buys amd instead of intel even though he has more than plenty of money to go intel, ¿why? because since the treand and rational thing is to buy intel, he'll go and buy amd.

    You'd have to be a contrarian to buy any CPU other than AMD, really. Intel has been shitty for many years.

    i use intel in my laptop because linux support is a bit better, and a radeon for the same reason in my desktop, along with a ryzen cpu because it's more efficient.
    i'm looking forward to all innovations from intel, amd and nvidia, and i hope things stay competitive.

    I think you'll find ~~*intel*~~ is the contrarians choice these days.

    This isn't the Bulldozer, OP.
    Jim saved AMD and Lisa's just starting to take notice of the AI market since her crazy cousin is extorting his customers.

    AMD is basically dead and buried. The next cope will be RDNA4 that will collect dust while Nvidia steams ahead.

      Nope, they are well and alive you brainlet. What is actually happening is that performance discrete GPUs are becoming inconsequential, small money for AMD and Nvidia as iGPUs become good enough for the masses. Their interests and energy are being spend on more lucrative enterprises.

        AMD iGPU will literally destroy NVIDIA for gaming market, NVIDIA has no CPU

        AMD will pull apple silicon on nvidia with high perf bandwidths

    My last too machines have both been Nvidia and I would probably say they're the better of the 2 cards but just out of spite because of how moronic the Nvidia CEO has been lately I might go AMD just on that alone.

    Well, I use Linux, so I basically have to use AMD. I'm not sure if things got better with Nvidia, but that was the law back in the day.

    what year are you living in, no one told you about ryzen? if you mean gpus you are right. (unless if you use them for linux because they work better than nvidia gpus for linux.)

    I've been buying AMD since like 2001. I did because I think 90% of the power of the competitor top end for 40% of the cost is good. Every intel-based laptop I've ever owned has shit the bed in <3 years too.

    I didn't want to pay double the price of my 1070ti for a card in the same performance tier.
